I know it's tooo late to post proposal here, but I'd like to let my idea known by others.
# Summary Although many projects hosted on github or gitlab adopt the fork-and-merge working flow, email is still irreplaceable for its compatibility. However, the send-email module is old and difficult for new users. I’d like to improve it and implement a more modern interface for git-send-email. # Purpose The current implementation of send-email is based on perl and has only a tui, it has two problems: - user must install a ton of dependencies before submit a single patch. - tui and parameter are both not quite friendly to new users. # Plan So I propose to implement following: - Allow user to send mail via a [`mailto` link](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mailto). so that users could complete the mail in their favorite email clients such as gmail, mutt, alpine and even gmail for android through [termux](https://termux.com/) (termux is a terminal emulator on Android and has an API to call android system to open a link). - Build a simple email client (maybe a web components based web app or wxwidgets based GUI client, they are both cross-platform) which is easy to use for sending patch without disrupting the mailbox format. Here is my proposal: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PbaKJOUWjpAh0JEunqhKWiWW4SAr_-7DH_ss4WkgDGs/edit -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
